WHERE

WHEN

WHOSE HELP IS REQUIRED

Mom, Dad or other grown-up (some adult facilitation/involvement required if under age 14)

HOW IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE

Society often overlooks adults as they age. Your involvement helps prevent isolation and reminds older adults that they are still valued and brings joy and purpose to their lives!

DESCRIPTION

Design a special project using your individual interests and skills, such as leading a discussion group, entertaining residents with your musical abilities, or knitting with a resident. You may also assist with a SFCJL special event like our annual golf tournament fundraiser.

*Note: We ask that you commit to 40 years of volunteer service per year.

ITEMS NEEDED

Good communication and leadership skills, interest in aiding and working with seniors, and any special skill or talent, such as ability to play musical instrument

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

Children under the age of 14 may need supervision. Please note all volunteers must complete an orientation/training and are required to take a Tuburculosis Test (as we are a skilled nursing facility).
